the implicit conversion is simply incorrect for the [t a] case, while it
works perfectly ok for all other cases. So, I am not so sure -- the
[t a] feature was added on top of already existing implementation.
Besides, it is too late for making the default Pd trigger fully
Max-compatible. For the record, in Max:
[t 1], for any input, outputs the integer 1,
[t a], for any input, outputs the message 'a' ('a' is the selector)
[t l] works pretty much like Pd's [t a] (horribly, it converts bang to 0
as well...)
